“Never Give Up”, Says Kamala

 Vice President Kamala Harris’ concession speech was a gift. I was greatly encouraged by her bravery, compassion and message of strength in the face of defeat. I hope it inspires you to keep standing for freedom, dignity and democracy.


Here are seven inspiring quotes from Vice President Kamala Harris’ speech:

  1. "The light of America's promise will always burn bright as long as we never give up and as long as we keep fighting."

  2. "We owe loyalty not to a president or a party, but to the Constitution of the United States, and loyalty to our conscience and to our God."

  3. "I do not concede the fight that fueled this campaign—the fight: the fight for freedom, for opportunity, for fairness, and the dignity of all people."

  4. "We will continue to wage this fight... in how we live our lives by treating one another with kindness and respect, by looking in the face of a stranger and seeing a neighbor."

  5. "Sometimes the fight takes a while. That doesn't mean we won't win... The important thing is don't ever give up."

  6. "You have the capacity to do extraordinary good in the world... This is a time to roll up our sleeves. This is a time to organize, to mobilize, and to stay engaged for the sake of freedom and justice."

  7. "Only when it is dark enough can you see the stars... let us fill the sky with the light of a brilliant, brilliant billion of stars."

Each of these statements reflects resilience, hope, and a commitment to core democratic values.
